Sorry if someone has covered this but I can't find anything on this
topic. I'm working with Slide Masters and Layouts for the first time.
I'm doing OK with making them and applying them to pages. But when I
make a table it doesn't work. When I go to Insert>Layout Placeholder>
Table, then I get a box that has the word "Table" in it. Is that right?
When I look for controls to make it look like a table with headers,
cells etc., right-click on it, whatever, I don't see any table controls,
just the usual text/box attributes (size etc.). So in the ribbon I go to
Table Styles and click on one of them (Light #5) and then I have a
normal table floating above this box with "Table" in it that I can apply
color etc to, but I can't edit it when going in the Normal page, the
table's just static. Help! Again, trying to get a table format in slide
masters that will edit when applied to the Normal view, similar to the
way a text box provides the 5 levels of bullets.
